  More about "Batch Importer" and "Configurable Text File Importer"...
  - Ability to process multiple files or one big one.
  - Ability to decide which folder/section/page they go to.
  - Ability to decide what attributes in the files are used.
  - One use might be a single .txt based daily journal file. Parse and import. Or do the parsing external and import all the little files.
  - PONGen (TechEd Scheduler) has some of these capabilities and the developer Rob Rohr is open to suggestions (quick and easy ones at least.)

  Why don't you include Firefox to OneNote? There are many Firefox users who refuse to use IE but who would love to have a OneNote powertoy to use together with the firefox browser.

  There already is a FireFox to OneNote PowerToy...
  http://www.onenotepowertoys.com/2005/12/27/fire...
  
  It may not work with 1.5.0.1 yet, but it does work with FF 1.07 - 1.5 and with the Flock Browser.

  I want a better "print" and "save as" option. Right now, when i print or save to other file formats, my notes get chopped off. Even when i select the letter stationary. OneNote 12 has a scale feature but it works sometimes and other times it scales everything to use 1/4 the size of the paper.

  More about "Taskbar utility for tasks"...
  - TaskBlaze has a simple interface for adding appointments in Outlook. Simply create a title and click the start button. When finished that task, click Stop and an appointment will be made in your Outlook Calendar.
  - Auctioneer for Lotus Notes (and Outlook) was similar, but more advanced. You could do Tasks, Mail, Appointments, and more. Plus it could query for the categories. Sort of a mix between ActiveWords and TaskBlaze. Highly unstable, but a cool concept.
  - The default "Open New Side Note" in the taskbar can be used for task management purposes, but limiting the view of the screen isn't all that useful to me.
  - The Daily Journal powertoy allows a hotkey to be defined to make navigation to a page of ToDo's easier, but doesn't enable flags or place a timestamp.
  - The Outlook2OneNote powertoy allows you to select the .one file. This would be a nice feature.
  
  Last, but not least, is that there has to be a "GTD" focused PowerToy out of those 1000 submitted ideas for the Contest. In fact, I'm adding to the poll right now for that.

  I would like a way that I could link to a particular page in OneNote. Let me explain what I mean.
  
  I do research. Many times I have several pages in OneNote that are all germane to whatever I am writing. Let us say I do my writing in Word. I would like a way to have several URLs that I could keep on my page in Word so that I could pop back and forth to the correct page in OneNote. Also, that would enable me to put a way that document for a time and yet easily find all the reference materials right there in my Word document rather than having to go back and rummage through OneNote again.
  
  It would also be nice if I could have those links as icons on my desktop.

  Andy of TabletDev hinted that he had a "Favorites" feature that he had not implemented yet. Not sure how it functioned though. Otherwise the only way (until ON12) is a shortcut with a file:/// to the .one file...
  
  Quote from Owen Braun's Blog: (http://blogs.msdn.com/owen_braun/archive/2005/1...)
  In OneNote 2003, the best you could do - if you were quite clever - was to insert a file:// link to another section. Couldn't get you to the exact page, was difficult to construct, broke if the other thing moved, etc.
  
  In OneNote 12, when you right-click on a page tab, there's a new menu command called "Copy Hyperlink to this Page":
  When you select this, OneNote builds a onenote:// hyperlink to the current page and puts it on the clipboard. Then you just navigate to the page where you want to insert the link, paste, and voila - OneNote inserts a nicely formatted friendly link (for example: Linking related notes together).

  A OneNote timer object would be nice. I'ld like to be able to start and pause a timer for a task, then when the task is done be able to automatically stamp the task with the cummulative time.

  It would really be nice if the formatting of a clip copied to onenote could be preserved (blank lines, etc.).
  
  Hey, thanks though for the update to work in FireFox 1.5.0.1. Keep up the great effort.

  I'd like to see an "Email to OneNote" toy - so that if there's something I see while using another computer I can quickly email it off to a specific address, have it "intercepted" by OneNote and flagged up as new when I'm next on my own PC.

  Hi Chris,
  
  This video talks about OneNote 2007's integreation with Oulook (skip to the middle). Is this what you are looing for?
